Very comfortable and clean double room! Our stay in Alexander Hotel was nice, breakfast was good and there were sweet and salty delicious meals. The position is strategic and perfectly linked to the city centre (500 meters on foot) with bus and tram stop in front of the hotel! The structure is located near a very quiet road: our 3 nights were pleasant! I recommend it for your stay in Basel! See you next time, thankss!

The elevator was not large, but they can help you with the luggage. The front desk is very helpful in directions and they provide Basel card for the duration of the trip- which is a pleasant surprise (allowing you all the public transportation for free in the city)

They gave me a room for 4 people when I am alone and charged CDN353 per night. No bath soap, no shampoo, only hand soap, small towels, unhelpful reception staff. Bare floors through out.
4-night trip

8/10

Great value for the money and the location was very convenient. The young gentleman at the reception was incredible with his service and tips. Basic but clean hotel and our room was very spacious. Bathrooms could use some updating, but all in all, we were very satisfied with our stay and would come again.

The commode, bathroom door and shower were broken... when I pointed it out they said they would give me extra towels to clean up the pool of water on floor from the broken commode and shower.
